In Their Own Words
I want students to come way from my classes and lessons with a practical and modern approach to songwriting and guitar, and insights on being an independent artist. I'm currently an active artist, songwriter, producer, and sideman. I use this experience to empower those who have the drive and wherewithal to pursue a career in music with the exact tools and tips that I use in my own practice.
